California is a 1963 American Western film directed by Hamil Petroff and starring Jock Mahoney and Faith Domergue.[1]
Revolutionaries rise up against the Mexican government in California in 1841. Mexican general Don Francisco Hernandez pits his troops against a tenacious team of revolutionaries led by his half-brother Don Michael O'Casey. Marianna De La Rosa is an heiress pledged to marry Don Francisco although she secretly loves Don Michael.
The film was shot on the old Republic lot. The sword fight at the end was director Hamil Petroff's last-minute idea and it did not appear in the original script.[2]
